Chose Mozilla Firefox
Mozilla Firefox is faster, more efficient, and has less "bloatware" than Microsoft Edge, which is a frustrating and inefficient browser. It is a much smoother and more pleasant browsing experience.

Chose Mozilla Firefox
When I decided on Firefox, it was well beyond the other browsers. Today, the competition is catching up but Firefox still seems to be a bit more innovative.

Chose Mozilla Firefox
Firefox is faster and a lot more user friendly. It feels safer, and more up to date. The extensions and updates are easier to handle. The custom looks and options put it far ahead. Ad blocking and safety also seem to be better. I don't feel as good about safe searching on chrome.

Chose Mozilla Firefox
Windows' Internet Explorer is a lightening rod for Malware and is targeted by malicious parties far more than any similar program. Mozilla Firefox's different approach tends to generate far more goodwill.

Firefox is well suited for any browsing situation. I always recommend having all three major browsers in case you run across a website that acts funny, You can try another to check the site, but in my experience, there hasn't been an issue like that for Firefox in a long time.

Usability
Again, excellent interface and rapid movement, much better than Microsoft, which has excess bells and whistles in my opinion. The issues with instability are what makes it less useful to me currently. This may be because Mozilla is a rival browser to MS Edge or, earlier, MSIE, which might explain the lack of compatibility following updates.

Mozilla Firefox is more user-focused and asset-based than Google Chrome, which is too dependent on Google Suite of products and doesn't allow the end user as much choice or customization.
